It's time to learn Emacs! :)

Emacs has built-in multilingual (not just i18n + l10n) support since
version 20 -- some 5 years ago. And it comes with its own
input-method system, which also works in console mode. I've been
using it for editing Chinese (and also other languages) texts files
and mail/news since then, and I don't even need xcin.
